*Minimum Ultimate Load is 5 times Working Load Limit. Based on single leg sling (in-line load), or resultant load on multiple legs with an included angle less than or equal to 120 degrees.
** Proof test load equals or exceeds the requirement of ASTM A952(8.1) and ASME B30.9-1.4 for the chain size and number of legs.
